SB 455: Electric bicycles.
The bill aims to revise labeling requirements for electric bicycles, requiring manufacturers and distributors to apply a permanent marking on the frame containing information such as the brand name and manufacturer or distributor. This change would start on July 1, 2026. The bill also prohibits the sale of vehicles that can provide assistance when exceeding 28 miles per hour and requires incident reports to include the marking information. Additionally, any product sold as an electric bicycle that no longer meets the definition after January 1, 2026, must be subject to a written notification from the retailer or manufacturer.
